[QUOTE="marty gerber, post: 982498, member: 99695"] I'm 79 and walked from St. Jean to Santiago last September (actually 8/29-10/2) with my 22-year-old granddaughter. She did her Camino; I did mine. Most of the time, they were the same but when they weren't, we knew the Camino would bring us together again—and it did. I met wonderful people in her age group, and she met some good folks in mine. Almost all the miles were covered on foot, but when I felt like my feet (and energy) could use a day off, I simply took a bus for a town or few. The key is to be loose and flexible, be in tune with how you're feeling physically and psychologically, and listen to what you're being told. The Camino's gifts are everywhere—including the most unexpected places. You can't plan on finding them in this particular town or that one, or discount any specific stretch as having nothing or little to offer. Be open—to all the miles and all the people you'll meet on them. -Marty [/QUOTE]
